I don't know why you guys let it get past the 1/2 mark. It makes sense that you will have less weight in the car with less gas unless you need it.

But hey, common sense eludes the best of us.

Personally when I fill up, I've been making a habit to fill up to full + the neck. But I drive it until it gets below a 1/4 tank, around the fuel-light trip point, then fill it completely up again. I drive about 400 miles a week and work a lot so it doesn't make sense for me to stop or go out of my way all the time to keep hitting the gas station...
